Good location, close to Heraklion city and the Airport (15min drive), the beach, supermarkets, etc. The staff is very kind. The food during breakfast and dinner was very good as well, with a mixture of international and Greek dishes.

“Lovely stay in Gouves”
The room was big and beds were comfortable. We got a super massive king size double so we had a lot of space. Air con worked very well and the pool by our room was not crowded like in the main area. They had almost every night some type of entertainment which I thought I wouldn’t be very much interested but then I realised how good the performers were so I enjoyed every one of them. The hotel is just by the beach and there are shops and stuff to do nearby. I really liked the food also, we stayed a week and didn’t feel like we were repeating too much. They changed every day the menu and the food was good. Some veggie options as well. I asked for oat milk as I take normal milk and Eva was very kind in bringing it out every time. She was very nice to us and made us feel really comfortable! Always with a smile and making sure everyone is happy.

Really perhaps the only problem is the wi-fi, which basically only works at the reception and very slowly. Outside the reception it does not work at all.

I start with the best thing, the food was amazing at the hotel. I also heard from other guests that they returned here because of the delicious meal. We spend a lot of time at the property's playground with our children. We also had an own jacuzzi next our apartment.

“Comfortable and close to the sea”
It was first vacation with out baby and we had a great time. The room has all the facilities to prepare baby formula and food - kettle, microwave, fridge, stove etc. The saff loves children and everyone was very nice. The pools are fantastic - both big and baby paddling pool. They are not too deep so the water heats quickly, so baby could enjoy splashing too. Hotel was very close to the beaches. Relatively easy to go everywhere with a pram There was some entertainment in the pool area on some of the nights and it was a nice bonus. Food was varied, breakfasts were standard choice with some variety of British food like in most resorts. Dinners offered some Greek and international dishes. There was something different every night - we stayed for a week and nothing was a repeat. The baclava for dessert was great. Lots of fresh and cooked veggies and different types of meat every night. Gyros was nice. Food exceeded my expectations and I gladly tried lots of Greek dishes.
